Retry mechanism

If an event fails, it will be stored and retried every night at midnight GMT, increasing the retry count by one to a maximum of three for up to 72 hours. After the third unsuccessful retry, the event will be discarded.

If a create vulnerability event fails and is stored, any update or delete action relating to the failed event is stored and replayed in chronological order to help maintain the correct state.
